70% of global insured losses were driven by severe convective storms (SCS) in recent years. In the U.S., SCS caused $38 billion of insured loss in the first half of 2023, breaking the record of $33 billion set in the first half of 2011. From 1990 to 2022, SCS insured losses increased at an annual rate of 8.9 percent.

The Growing Impact of Severe Convective Storms on property LOsses

Severe convective storms (SCS), including tornadoes, hailstorms, and damaging winds, cause significant damage annually in the US. In 2024 alone, the United States experienced two major hurricanes and a particularly high frequency of severe thunderstorms, accounting for at least two-thirds of the year’s global insured losses. By early December 2024 estimates, global insured losses exceeded USD 135 billion, with the U.S. share reaching around $90 billion.

In recent years, SCS insured losses have been rising, with an annual rate of 8.9% growth from 1990 to 2022.

The rising insured losses from SCS hazards highlight the urgent need for precise and actionable data solutions. As losses continue to climb, insurers, reinsurers, and government agencies are turning to forensic storm mapping and analytics to reduce unnecessary payouts and strengthen their response strategies. Proactive engagement with policyholders, supported by real-time weather data, enables insurers to combat inflated or fraudulent claims effectively. 

In this high-loss environment, Canopy Weather’s specialized expertise in hail, wind, and tornado data provides a competitive advantage, helping our clients navigate increasingly complex weather challenges.

Who We Serve

While we primarily serve the insurance industry, working with market-leading primary insurance carriers (especially claims and underwriting), reinsurers, reinsurance brokers, and MGA/MGUs, our data also supports governmental disaster response efforts. FEMA uses our weather hazard data to trim days—even weeks—off effective tornado responses. Additionally, through partnerships with our sister company HailTrace, our impact extends to storm restoration.

We serve some of the top reinsurers in the world.

Why Canopy?

We exclusively focus on the perils that affect the roof (wind, hail, tornado) to better serve our claims and underwriting clients – we don’t get distracted by floods, health claims, car claims, etc. Our clients understand that the cost of bad data is exponentially more expensive than relying on multiple vendors – especially when each vendor is an expert focused on their data specialty.
